Hey everyone. B9.5 S5 owner since brand new 2021, 5 dealer visits/services. Never worked on myself. 

A week ago I had my last oil change and today I popped open the hood to clean the engine bay up a bit as it’s really dirty and check for any leaks the dealer may miss. I popped the cover off and I noticed that my wastegate line running underneath the heat shield seemed routed oddly and the line looks like it’s being pinched between the cover and where it rests. When I looked at it with the cover on, it definitely looks like the cover is pressing down on it. 

I was wondering if this is just me being paranoid or not. The line itself feels so flimsy and thin, I looked at several B9/9.5 videos on YouTube of people changing their oil etc and I see their wastegate line runs a little bit different than mine and none of theirs look oval shaped, they’re perfectly circular. 

Should I bring this to the dealers attention, I have an extended warranty on the car. Car is only driven 14,400 miles so far with zero issues. Although I would say that age plays a big factor in components becoming weaker over time so this thing could have been like this since day 1 and over time came out to look like this. 

Thanks for your feedback
